Happy Jack Martin, our custodian of Happy Dollars for this month, started by saying that based on his lengthy report last week, he has been advised to be speedy. So for the sake of moving this along, I am going to try a new format.
Happy Dollars for Sports: Bob Wood, Kevin Kickery, Art Bradbury, Dan Larson, George Schoen, Marc Glass, Neal Cunningham, Steve Jacoby and Ned Lynch. I am sure you can figure out who they were rooting for.
Birthday Dollars: Jim Fallon who requested a moment of silence in lieu of the song.
Miscellaneous Dollars: Bill Saunders loves being Acting President; Bob Buettner for Happy Jack and for leaving early; George Agnelli for being late; Jim Watts thinks Marc Glass is a pain in the…..; Sue and Peter Klock are flying to Paris to see their grandkids; Guy Labella and Alex Wisz just because Happy Jack asked.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
1. PP Bill would like all Rotarians to make a note that starting May 9, 2018, every second and fourth Wednesday of the month our meeting will take place at the River Room of the Goodwin College at 6:00 PM. Food will be catered by Congress Street Rotisserie. He would also like us to spread the word among other Rotarians who have not been able to attend lunch meetings for various reasons. Starting with May 2, 2018 we will meet at the Ridge for lunch every first and third (some months fifth) Wednesdays of the month. Unless things change in the future, lunches will be provided by our current caterer.
2. Sue Klock was happy to announce that their team was able to get a commitment of $836,000, which is a record for the District.
3. Alex Wisz reminded us about Job Shadow next Wednesday. He will soon get a list with names of students. These students will join us for Lunch.
4. Board Meeting will be held at 5:30 PM on 4/23/2018.
Since out last week’s Raffle winner was not present, Marc Glass had our Guest Speaker pull the winning number 675. I did not see anyone raising their hand, except I saw Marc reaching into his pocket, pull out a ticket, and guess what?
Early leavers left soon after.
